Bradley inspires Glenstal victory

Stephen O’Leary’s try, brilliantly converted by Luke Bradley 14 minutes into the second half, proved the game’s turning point. Rockwell, with the wind at their backs, dominated the remainder of the tie but were unable to break down Glenstal who were reduced to 14 players in the final minutes after hooker Cal McCarthy was sin binned for a technical foul.

Ronan Maher and James Houlihan, on two occasions, came close to scoring for Rockwell and they scorned the option of taking a couple of kickable penalties as the clock ticked down — instead trying to secure a crucial try.
